Driveway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Carolina address and unloads right where you point.






Contractors order driveway gravel by the ton for whole subdivisions, while homeowners often buy for a single driveway. Both need the right size and depth to handle Carolina's rainy climate. About 73 inches of rain falls each year, so washout planning matters for every driveway project.
Gravel Monkey delivers driveway gravel straight to your address, priced by the ton. You choose the size that fits your traffic and drainage needs. No yard visit needed, no pickup required.
Driveway gravel comes in several sizes, from fine 3/8 inch stones up to 2-to-3 inch base rock. The right choice depends on your ground condition and how you use the driveway. Compare the options below.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway Gravel | General driveway top layer | All-purpose blend for standard driveways with moderate traffic. |
| 3/8" Driveway Gravel | Smooth top dressing, comfortable underfoot | Small, round stones that pack into a firm, easy-to-walk surface. |
| 3/4" Driveway Gravel | The standard driveway size, locks together well | Angular stones that interlock, resisting shifting under tires. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Heavier traffic and soft ground | Larger size spreads load and reduces rutting in wet conditions. |
| 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Deep base layer under a finer top | Provides a stable foundation that drains well beneath a wearing course. |
| 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | Rural lanes, mud control, first lift | Large stones that bridge soft soil and establish a firm base. |
Every driveway project has a specific problem to fix. Match your project to the gravel size that solves it.

Carolina sees about 73 inches of rain each year. That much water can wash out a poorly drained driveway. Choosing angular gravel that locks together helps prevent erosion and keeps the surface stable during heavy downpours.
Around 118 days each year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means scheduling a delivery on dry ground can take patience. Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point. If the day is wet, the truck can sink or rut your lawn.
Freezing temperatures do not happen in Carolina, with zero days below 32F on average. The ground never freezes and thaws, so the base stays stable year-round. This removes one major cause of driveway damage, letting you focus on drainage instead.
Driveway gravel is sold by the ton. The depth you need depends on the base condition and the gravel size. To estimate your tonnage, use our driveway gravel calculator. It converts length, width and depth into tons for the exact product you want.

You get an email confirmation when you order, then a second email with a photo of the load before delivery. You must approve that email to confirm the date. Someone must be at the site during the window, or a redelivery fee may apply. Delivery dates are at least 3 business days after ordering.
